Talk:Johannes Mimir Faustus/@comment-38349806-20190129183908

It's a reference to Faust, from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (who was born at the same date as the character). Faust, in the German legend, was a guy who sold his soul for knowledge and the demon would bring him to hell at the moment when he felt such happiness that he wished time would stop and that moment could last forever.
